About

Bagpipes for Any Occasion is a wedding musician based in Rochester, New York.

I've been a passionate bagpiper for over 25 years. With plenty of experience performing at weddings, private parties, and other events, you don't need to stress about the piper.

I encourage you to get in touch so we can craft a plan that works best for your celebration! That said, here are some of the most common ways to use bagpipes at your wedding:

Before:
- Playing outside to welcome guests as they arrive at the ceremony.

During:
- Playing the wedding party down the aisle.
- Playing YOU down the aisle!
- Playing you the newlyweds out of the ceremony. (I'll be honest; this is my favorite!)

After:
- Playing outside after the ceremony.
- Playing outside the reception to welcome and call in the guests.
- Marching the wedding party/you into the reception hall. (This is rather fun and festive.)
- As entertainment! I know plenty of fun, fast tunes to celebrate.

These are just common uses or things I've done before, and I'm happy to come up with something that works for you.

Congratulations on your engagement!

Best bagpiper ever!

Jake was an amazing vendor to work with!! He performed at our wedding ceremony as part of a family tradition to have a bagpiper. He was extremely responsive, professional, and friendly throughout the booking process. He was also an outstanding musician and played the bagpipes beautifully. All of our guests loved this unique touch and loved it. I would highly recommend his services for any event!

Memorable Moment

Jake was extremely helpful to me, as this was a surprise for my fiance. He was on time, dressed to a tee, he played beautifully. He was a professional all the way. He was gracious and let us take photos with him. We will never forget our wedding day and Jake will be a large part if why it was so special.
